mdatabase_define(3m17n) [debian man page]

mdatabase_define(3m17n) 					 The m17n Library					   mdatabase_define(3m17n)

NAME

       mdatabase_define - Define a data of the m17n database.

SYNOPSIS

       MDatabase* mdatabase_define (MSymbol tag0, MSymbol tag1, MSymbol tag2, MSymbol tag3, void *(*)(MSymbol *, void *) loader, void *
       extra_info)

DESCRIPTION

       Define a data of the m17n database. The mdatabase_define() function defines a data that has tags tag0 through tag3 and additional
       information extra_info.

       loader is a pointer to a function that loads the data from the database. This function is called from the mdatabase_load() function with
       the two arguments tags and extra_info.  Here, tags is the array of tag0 through tag3.

       If loader is NULL, the default loader of the m17n library is used. In this case, extra_info must be a string specifying a filename that
       contains the data.

RETURN VALUE

	   If the operation was successful, mdatabase_define() returns a pointer to the defined data, which can be used as an argument to
	   mdatabase_load().  Otherwise, it returns NULL.
